🧬 What is Lefumide 10mg (Leflunomide)?
Lefumide 10mg is an immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory medication used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. The active ingredient, Leflunomide, inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, which plays a key role in the proliferation of autoimmune T-cells. This suppression reduces joint inflammation and slows disease progression.

Manufactured by Cipla Limited, a globally respected Indian pharmaceutical company, Lefumide offers an effective and affordable generic alternative to Arava.
